  • You could have every single piece of technology on the planet using AI and it would still falter, because HUMANS DON’T WANT AI! Time and time again it’s been shown that people don’t like this shit. You’re spending money that hasn’t been made, on ram that hasn’t been produced, to be installed in AI data centers that haven’t been built, to run AI farms that have zero interest from humans, to chase profits that will never come.

    I would normally say “congratulations, you fell for it again”, except nobody is tricking you here. YOU are the one tricking yourself. Every expert has stated that CEOs everywhere report no actual benefit from their AI use. Tech experts everywhere report that customers don’t want AI in their toilet. Or their toaster. Or their TV. Or their cell phone.

    So who is this for?


  • Well, to be fair, I’m sure ciggerettes being bad for your health isn’t obvious to some boomers. When they were kids, cigerettes were marketed as a healthy alternative to breakfast. So they watched their parents, who served in WWII, smoke em all day.

    And honestly? I don’t blame them. They were 18, and sent off to fight hitler in the biggest global conflict the world has ever seen. Whats a lousy cigerette going to do when you’ve survived Normandy, ya know? They say the sea had turned from a beautiful majestic blue, into a horror red, because the OCEAN was more blood than water at that point. Surely a marlborro ain’t got shit on that.

    So the boomers grew up with commercials with cartoon camels convincing them that cigerettes were cool.

    So I bet there’s still a few boomers who refuse to believe cigerettes will give you cancer.

    And before you laugh, just know that most kids these days don’t believe that vapes will give THEM cancer.

    It’s all the same. The form factor changes. The world and it’s problems stay the same. We’re still dealing with a world full of nazis, idiots, and wealthy assholes contributing to climate change.


  • auto closing/suspending stale communities stale could be defined as unanswered mod reports, no mod activity (no post, comment, login in x time period), no posts

    No. I’ve seen several times people ask the admins if they could take over a community. And it happened. Thus reviving dead communities.

    staggered new account permissions: wait 24h before commenting, wait 7 days before posting.

    Why?

    allow community users to flag posts or comments as NSFW.

    This one I like.

    Voting changes from up, down to up, down or NSFW.

    That’s not how it should be done though. The same menu that you pull out that lets you report things to a mod, instead of reporting to mod, it should let you report as NSFW. If a mod approves the request, it then becomes labeled as NSFW.
